Let's Get Technical - Great British Bake Off 2015 Dessert Week

Week 4 in the tent, dessert week saw our remaining baker Jason tackle a Spanische Windtorte.While the name suggests the result of a big night on the chorizo and bean tapas it is actually the drag queen equivalent of a pavlova. Not originating in Spain or even Australia the Spanische Windtorte comes from Austria...do we already have our entrant for Chow Down to Eurovision 2016??

I did think during this challenge that I would never make one again but as the weeks have gone on the idea of a Christmas windtorte doesn't sound completely silly.Would you make a spanische windtorte or stick to the good old Aussie/Kiwi pav?What is your favourite pavlova topping? I don't mind a spoonful of kiwi fruit with the beautiful marriage of tart passion fruit and cream cocooned pav.
